Hi there
Hello - I’ve just joined - looking forward to ‘meeting’ you virtually! I have a previous diagnosis of undifferentiated inflammatory arthritis but have been in remission for about 5/6 years. Unfortunately it has been triggered again, having a bad flare and my Dr has ultimately decided it is PsA (rather than RA). Finding it very difficult to get meds for a variety of reasons and hoping to be able to chat to others who may understand me. It’s hard to be right back at the beginning again but trying to stay positive!

And here's some information about pain management:
It's great to see that you are keeping a positive mindset even though as you say, it can be difficult to feel that you are back where you started. The Online Community is the perfect place to meet people who understand what you are going through, and I hope you will enjoy exchanging support and advice with other members.
Best wishes, Sarah (moderator)
